Concussion in Community Sport: Canberra Workshop

Sports Medicine Australia is holding a Concussion in Community Sport Workshop this February at the University of Canberra.

The workshop is free and open to all – trainers, parents, officials, coaches, and volunteers.

The workshop will be delivered by the highly respected University of Newcastle Associate Professor Andrew Gardner and Sport & Exercise Physician Dr. Robert Reid.

Concussion is a significant and complex health issue within the sporting landscape, with ongoing research and education vital for player and sport safety.

This workshop aims to increase knowledge of concussion, its prevalence, signs and symptoms, recognition and management, and return to play, as well as insight into long-term impacts and recent research.
